Chicago officer’s interview before trial sparks legal fight

BY DON BABWIN Associated Press CHICAGO — Attorneys prosecuting a white Chicago police officer in the 2014 shooting death of a black teenager asked a judge Thursday to revoke or increase his bail after the officer discussed one of the nation’s most infamous police shootings in a media interview. Jason Van Dyke’s interview with the Chicago Trib- une took place with his attorney standing nearby, and it quickly set off a new legal fight just days before jury selection in the case, which led to days of protests after a video of the shooting was made pub- lic and Van Dyke arrested. When attorney Joel Brodsky saw the interview, he said, he knew one thing for sure: Van Dyke is never going to take the witness stand in the slaying of Laquan McDonald. “This allows him to basically testify without taking the stand and being under oath, to tell the jurors that he’s not a racist (and) he’s never fired his gun,” Brod- sky said. “If he was going to take the stand, why give the interview?” UN Syria envoy floats idea BRIAN CASSELLA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE VIA AP Prosecutors say the officer’s comments, published In this Aug. 28, 2018 photo, Jason Van Dyke Wednesday on the front page of the Tribune, were a speaks at his lawyer’s office in Chicago.

BY JASON GREENBERG [email protected]

There were a lot of fans in the stands Aug. 17 for the season opener against Allatoona who wanted to see if the 2018 iteration of the Canes would hold up to the standard set by recent successful Cartersville teams. With 20 starters and several standouts graduating from the year before, there was reasonable uncertainty. However, even before a comfortable 35-0 win over Allatoona at Weinman Stadium to start the year, Cartersville head coach Joey King was confident in his team. “I see these guys every day, so I know what they’re capable of,” he said. Now, after passing the first test, Cartersville knows it has the RANDY PARKER/THE DAILY TRIBUNE NEWS Cass sophomore Jaden Musacchio lines a base hit in her only at bat of Thursday’s win over Paulding County. team to pursue its yearly goals — a region championship and deep playoff run.
